[PATCH] gspca pac7302/pac7311: fix buffer overrun

[Németh Márton]

From: Márton Németh <nm127@freemail.hu>

The reg_w_seq() function expects the sequence length in entries
and not in bytes. One entry in init_7302 and init_7311 is two
bytes and not one.

Hello Németh,

Thank you for the patch! The bug did exist for a long time, and nobody
found it yet.

I have just a remark: some of your patches have a diff starting with
'a/drivers/..'. They should start with 'a/linux/drivers/..' (as done by
'hg export').

Best regards.
